Notes:
ADVANCE DESIGN of an experimental four passenger electric car being developed by General Electric and Chrysler Corporation for delivery to the U.S. Department of Energy in the spring of 1979 stresses aerodynamics. Two of the subcompact size electric “integrated test vehicles” are being built during the design and development phase of the DoE Near-Term Electric Vehicle Program. The electrics will have a range of 145 miles at 35 mph, and 75 miles in stop-and-go city driving fully loaded. They will have a cruise speed of 55 mph and will use high-energy-density lead-acid batteries developed by Globe-Union, Inc.
